The way I do it is to use a custom sendmail.cf which supports
mailertables. I use the stock sendmail daemon.
I've attached the .mc file used to create the .cf file I use.
my /etc/mailertable has:
----8<----
. uucp-uudom:<uucp-host>
----8<----
where <uucp-host> is the entry in the uucp systems file to call. this
routes all non-local mail to my uucp upstream link, and defeats sendmail's
standard tendency to try and resolve any address through DNS.
Hope this helps a little.
